The purpose of this study was to investigate the publication trends of children and adolescents' smoking-related researches published in Korean academic journals. Three hundred fifty papers published until 2018 were analyzed by focusing on the publication year, research participants, research themes and research methods. As a result, smoking-related research on children and adolescents increased sharply from 1995 to 2000, and the trend continued. The main research participants were general children and adolescents and the most frequently studied themes were 'Associated Factors,' 'Intervention,' 'Prevalence,' 'Prevention,' 'Characteristics,' 'Law and Policies,' 'Scales,' 'Review and Theories' respectively. The most frequently used research method was the quantitative method. Moreover, the most common data gathering method was using questionnaires, and the number of papers which used panel data was gradually increasing. Future studies were suggested to explore a broader range of themes, and a balanced research approach was also recommended using both qualitative and mixed methods.

The purpose of this study was to verify the mediating effect of the change of grit in the relationship that the change of exercise time of adolescents leads to the change of self-esteem. The data of 2,438 students (male = 1,327, female = 1,111) were used for the analysis, excluding cases including missing values in the data from the wave 1 and wave 2 of the Korean Children and Youth Panel 2018. The standardized residual score generated through regression analysis from the values in wave 1 to the values in wave 2 was used as a variable for the amount of change. As a results, the correlation between the amount of change in all three variables was found to be significant. Result of the hierarchical regression analysis revealed that it was confirmed that the partial mediating effect that the change of exercise time directly or indirectly affects the change of self-esteem through the change of grit is significant. These results indicate that adolescents, exercise time is gradually decreasing as the grade goes up, and this has an effect on the reduction of grit and self-esteem.
